some privacy humor

Ever since I started working on privacy problems (better living through statistics!), I am struck by the generally fatalistic view most people have about privacy. “The credit card companies know everything about me already,” “Google could easily steal my identity,” and so on. When sentiments like this become so widespread, they are fodder for humorists. (via Celeste LeCompte).
